Perhaps the "fountain pen" thing in this macos icon is a macos idiom. Do the icons for other editors use it on macos (OS-X that is)? Icons on OS-X _do_ usually look rather different than icons on other systems -- they're (much) bigger, and they seem to follow various rules that help them look consistent with others on the same platform. I think it's perfectly appropriate to use platform-specific icons for Emacs when they better follow a platform's style better. -Miles -- Yo mama's so fat when she gets on an elevator it HAS to go down.
